About 3 weeks ago, and co-incidentally, following installing some Windows updates, I could no long shut down my computer nor activate the restart function when clicking on the shut down or restart buttons. The hibernate button does works.

While this answer did not resolve my issue it eliminated the remote possibility that mozilla products might have an effect with Windows shutting down or restarting ones computer. I've also written to Microsoft about the problem but have not yet heard back from them. Thanks for your quick reply.
